Cartoon of Pirates walking the plank © 1997 by Ian D. Marsden
This is one of several Playboy-style cartoons I submitted to Michelle Urry at Playboy Magazine which led her to think that my drawing style might be a match for Playboy.

This was created using pen and ink, colored pencil and watercolor, gouache on Bristol Board.

(Smoony is the official Mascot of the FIS Alpine Ski World Championship 2003 in Davos designed by Ian Marsden)
I recently found an unopened Smoony keychain in one of my chests of drawers. It made me smile. They really did quite a good job on these in the merchandising department - the likeness was very good. I think I will pin it up on the big pinboard in my studio…
